Was the first prize a pair of BeoLab 6000s?

It was actually a Speedboat, then we changed it to a Caravan, then Botty didn't score 101 or more in 6 darts - so we changed it to a pair of BeoLab 6000's.

Rather than a pair of bl 6000, could the winner have the BFH?

For our bemused non-UK members, Bullseye was a 1980's game show. It was based on a game of darts combined with general knowledge questions, which led you to prizes like a 'microwave oven' or 'crystal decanter set' - or even the Star Prize of a Speedboat (not much use to a man in Sheffield), a caravan, or usually a crap car like a Mini Metro.

If you absolutely flunked it, you'd get your 'BFH' - which stands for 'Bus Fare Home'

'Bullseye' is on YouTube, or various late-night fringe 'Game' channels on Sky TV if anyone fancies a look.  You'll see some 1980's 'horror-perms' and general 'crimes against fashion' on there too...

Jim Bowen, the host, is a legend. He mastered the art of taking the p*ss out of contestants without them, or most of the viewers, realising!

Closer than Brighton though

Not so sure about that !

Michael, Andrew and even Cliff and I are practically neighbours by Australian standards

Mind you how many Brighton's are there in the world ?

(( somewhere between 43 and 50 it seems ))

I know what you mean !

Perhaps we should introduce a bylaw ... relating to number of posts and number of threads and number of forums ... to weight the ball as it spins around the roulette wheel ... but then MM might always be top dog cat and always win 😂
